I think we now have reason to believe that nortiptyline was providing pain relief, and that its abrupt discontinuation may have produced a rebound phenomenon where the pain is worse now than it was before your started taking it. I hope the intensity of the pain declines over time. It should pass. What would happen if you took the lowest dosage of nortrityline that resolves the pain and then taper from there?
Have you discussed gabapentin or pregabalin for pain relief with your doctor? To the best of my knowledge, both drugs are compatable with Parnate.
